The Funeral Services of Rev. +. s.
Evans.
Washnoton Post Of 10Th inst

Washington Post Of 10th inst.
A black cloth covered casket was
borne into McKendree M. Z. Church
yesterday afternoon by Messrs. B.
II. Stinemetz, W. G. Perry, Zacha-
riah Jones, o. A. Latham, l. L. John
son and David L. Cassel. 1t con
tanned the remains of Rev. French
Strother Evans, and the auditorium
of the church was filled to overflow
ing with the many friends that the
deceased had made during his long
residence in this city. Occupying
seats near the relatives of the de-
ceased were his associates in the
Dead Letter Office. As the pail
bearers placed their burden in front
of the pulpit and covered the top of
the casket with floral tributes that
had been sent to the church by many
friends, the choir sang an anthem.
The scripture lessons were read by
Rev. E. d. Owens and Rev. Little
ton F. Morgan. of Baltimore. After
hymn, Rev. c. Herbert Richardson
the pastor of the church, delivered
an address, giving biographical
sketch of the deceased from the time
when he grew up in Morgantown, w.
Va, without religious surroundings
and becoming converted while study
ing law in the office of his uncle, left
the law for the ministry, though
his uncle disinherited him for his
action. After renewing his connec-
ton with McKendree Church from
the time of it's foundation by him in
May, 1864, to the day of his death,
Mr.. Richardson said: HE was a
man of warm and generous tempera-
ment, and entered with zeal into
whatever he undertook. During
his long life of four score and six
years his integrity and purity of
character were never questioned.
His thoughts seemed to be all CEN
tered in the church and in all my
acquaintance with him,I never en-
tered his presence that his converse
ton did not turn at once to the
church of Christ. His information
concerning the great men of his
church and of the country was mar
velous, and his graphic narration Of
incidents concerning them was full
of interest.
Rev. j. H. Dashells delivered the
closing address, in which he said
that two features of the character Of
Rev. French S. Evans had particu
larly impressed him. The first was
his indubitable faith in all of Gods
word, which he believed with thu
same simple faith with which chile
} trusts in a mother. He never stop
} ped to question, but knelt as rever
emily and unquestioning before thu
!, mercy seat of Christ as if he ha(
seen the great white throne with hi
own eyes, and by his simple ant
straightforward earnestness he fore
} ed his convictions on others. TIL
second feature of his character wa
his extraordinary buoyancy, his spir
it never depressed by misfortune 0
broken by disaster, but Away
bright and cheerful through all vi
cissitudes of fortune.
Prayer was offered by Rev. MI
Chapman, and the friends passed b.
t the casket for last look at the ia
D miller features of the dead clergy
man the choir sang, "Guide me
thou great JEHOVAH"
: The casket will remain in tn
church until this forenoon when
a will be taken to Baltimore and inter

CURBSTONE CHAT.
What Our Citizens Say About Matters
and Things.

II am mighty glad to get back to
old Monongalia. I am glad that
circumstances were such that I
could come back. / think Monon-
gala the best county in the State
and she has the best people"
The above remark was made to the
NEW DOMINION yesterday by a young
man who some time ago moved to .
distant town with the view Of locat-
ing. We endorse what he said and
can commend him for his good Judge
ment.
~
"There ought to be drill or some
other means of insuring escape from
the public school building in case Of
fire." remarked DIR. Joseph A. Nc
Lane to the NEW DOMINION.
SIN some places" the Doctor con-
tinued, "they have drill in the
schools once or twice a week to train
the children to get out Of buildings
very quickly and with comparative
safety. In many Of the cities large
ward school building can be emptied
in two minutes"
We agreed with the Doctor that
some provision Of this kind ought to
be made.
another matter" said Doctor
McLane, chat would be great help
to the children and add to the sani-
tary condition of the building would
be the addition Of steam heaters
such as they have in the University.
The heat made by steam is more
mellow and much more grateful to
the lungs than the parched air that
surrounds q hot stove"
Who will not endorse what the
Doctor says?

| da, change cars! l did not happen
to be one of these passengers, so we
continued our journey on through
forests of pine and cypress, crossing
rivers, small streams and bays until
we reached Mobile.
In Mobile stopped at the Battle
House which is run on the European
plan in summer and American in
winter. Mobile is an old solid town
with narrow streets and very little
beauty. 1t has a population Of
about 10000 and is situated on Mo-
bile bay. Oysters and fish are to
be had in any quantity and style
desired. This city has large cot
ton trade and its shipping facilities
are excellent. Considering the APP
psarance of the city, business and
customs of the people, Mobile is a
little New Orleans.
! Before leaving this city ! will say
for the information of William Clark
the young gentleman of color, who
entertained with the "Hilarities'
last summer on Cheat, that while in
Mobile / saw Jemima, or her sister
and can now testify to the fact that
"Jemima is a daisy, she almost sets
me crazy, I'm smashed on Jemima
you bet" Those who are not famil
lar with the beauty and accomplish
ments Of Jemima can learn her his
, tory by inquiring of a "Hilarity" OF
have her story told in words set t.
music by calling on William Clarl
or Sam Pickenpaugh. Sans fort il

cul.ivatsnx the olive.

d. F. Newsom, of Arroyo Grande,
having been asked to give his experience
in olive culture, thus writes on the sub.
ject to the San Luis 0bispo Register: 81
think February and March the best
months for planting cuttings, which
should be about eight inches long and
put into the ground seven inches, si,ghi'
ly inclining north. They should be
planted in rows convenient for irriga'ir 8
and should be watered every ten or fif
teen days. When well rooted trans
plant to where wanted to grow. Plenty
of sand will csuse the cuttings to root
quicker. Any one who starts 10 rais e
olives with an idea of obtaining Der.
ries in less than ten years vi
in all probability be Disappointed;
neither should they think of ne
glecting either cuttings or trees.
/ am now gathering my olives and pre-
pairing them for pickle. For oil making
the olive should be ripe. Father Co.
mez. who was Mission Priest at San
Luis Obispo, while was County Clerk
and ex.oflicio School Superintendent
from 1858 to 1857, assisted me in many
ways, and had me to assist him, in
both picking olives and making oil;
either can be done with little expense.
For making oil Father Gomez ustd an
old mill stone to crush the berries, he
then put them in copper kettle with a
spout on one side and handle opposite;
the kettle was suspended over the fire
and filled to the top with water, the OIL
rose to the surface and was poured oil
and more water added, until the oil was
extracted"

work so far, the ex-State Printer
proves a greater margin in favor OF
the State than is shown above. The
total apparent expenditure by hun
for ali Textbook work from the be-
ginning is $50, ,012.55. The actual ex-
penditure, however. as appears from
his ledgers is $50, ,296.73. The differ
ence-$2, 2,715.S2-added to the margin
above-$l ,237.S0-shows surplus in
favor of the State on these four books
of s3,953.62. The discrepancy be-
tween the expenditure OF $59, ,0l2.55
and the proportion belonging to the
finished books-S31, ,9S75 is repre-
sented by material on hand and work
done for future editions, and the total
cost of the permanent work, nine
tenths of which will come to the
State from the sale OF future editions.
The margin in favor of the State is a
very satisfactory one. 1t is not too
much nor too little, and comes about
as near the requirement OF the law,
that the works should be sold at cost,
as could we'll be reached.
We have been assured by all COM
petent persons who have examined
the books so far finished, that they
are very superior in method, arrange
ment and matter selected. The me-
chanical execution of the work is cer-
tainly unsurpassed in any school
book publications we have seen, and
the engravings are creditable in de-
sign and artistic finish, and in the
clear and mellow manner in which
they have been brought out in the
printing. One gratifying feature of the
work is that all the cuts were en-
graved in the State Printing Depart
ment under the eye of the Superin-
tendent, and cost the State a fraction
less than 1000, or $4,000 less than
the Bancrofts claimed that the cuts
in their Readers cost.
The next books to be published
will be an Arithmetic and Il United
States History, both of which are
well under way.

SO at once. We hope to issue the

BILLS have been introduced in both

ernor Stoneman to the retired list of
the United States army, from which
position he resigned to serve the peo-
pie OF California in the capacity Of

sage OF such a measure is very gen
eral in this State, and it would be an
act OF justice which would be applaud

very laborious effort to break the
efficacy of our presentation OF the
facts upon which the friends OF Mr..
Lynch rely in his contest for the Con-
gresslonal seat of this district. 1t
publishes an array OF names that were
kept off the Supplemental Register by
the County Clerk because the atli-
davit accompanying each was dated
originally on.a day prior to the day
on which the Deputy Registers had
qualified before the County Clerk.
The simple answer to this is that the
Democratic Deputies were appointed
by Mr.. Bilderrain, the Assessor, as
the law authorizes. After. they had
gathered a large number of names
supported by proper afiidavits, the
lynx-eyed Republican managers dis
covered a technical flaw in the quail
fications OF these deputies, and re-
quired them to qualify before the
County Clerk, they having already
qualified before the County Assessor.
On this flimsy pretext, and at the last
hour, the legality of their work was
discredited and declared void. Here
is where the Times's mares nest
comes in. 1t cites particularly Mr..
Robert Dominguez as one OF the DEM
ocratic Deputies who presented affi-
davits from parties showing their
right to registration, which afiidavits
were found to have been dated on the
22d OF October (before the Depu-
ties had qualified before the
County Clerk, but hurriedly
changed to the 26th or 9th OF
October latter they had qualified,
as required by the County Clerk. J
Let us take the case OF Mr.. Domin-
guez as sample of them all. After
the new neutrality-suspicious. had
been sprung upon him, and he had
re-qualified, he went to each OF the
men he had previously got aflidavits
from and had them swear to the same
facts over again but, instead OF draw
ing up new form of affidavit, the
one sworn to previously was used,
corrected as to date so as to bring it
down to the time when the oath was
lastly taken. This seems to be all
there is in the startling array of mis-
dates our contemporary parades as
suspicious forgeries. Thus, then, the
citizens who were thus arbitrarily and
shamefuliy disfranchised were doubly
outraged. Because they were Demo.
cratic voters, and had come to seek
place on the register through Demo-
cratic channels, fiinsy technicality
was dug mp to prevent them from
voting. Then, when the technical
objection had been cured, they were
again spurned from the register and
insulted by the charge that their afIi-
davits were forgeries. This kind OF
ethics will not appear to advantage in
the high tribunal where this question
is to be tried. The testimony venti-
lating the whole business will be of
the most respectable and unimpeach.
liable character, including the clear
cut afiidavits of every member of the
Democratic County Executive Com.
mittee, a body of citizens OF the most
exalted worth and highest standing.
